livy and kaitlyn

So this past weekend livy went with my cousin Eric and her little girl Kaitlyn to a pumpkin patch they had a lot of fun. It was her last time to hang out with her and she loves playing with her. It was fun to be close to my cousins and I will miss them.

Heather and Abbies trip!

I had my sister Heather come and stay with us this past weekend. We had a lot of fun hanging out and getting to know my neice Abbie better. She is so adorable and looks so much like both of her parents. I am glad to have family it rocks.

livy loves her brother

So I thought I would update you on livy and easton. Olivia loves to smother her brother with kisses. She cannot stop kissing him. It is so funny because when she kisses him on the lips he thinks it is a binki and starts sucking on her and she thinks it is hysterical so she keeps on doing it. He sucks on her cheek her nose and her mouth he will suck on anything. He is so cute. She loves to help mommy and grandma feed the bottle but doesn't get the concept about keeping the nipple in the mouth and she gets mad if you help her so then we have to take the bottle away from her and she throws a tantrum. She likes to help burp Easton, comb his hair, and help give baths. She is such the helper. I am so glad she loves her brother and always worries when he cries. Easton loves her big sister. Easton is such the sleeper, the pooper, and eater. He sure knows how to shoot himself with his peepee and has done it quite a few times now. I just love to give him squeezes and he is such a good sleeper. Well there is your update.

You may call me Lynn, Easton Lynn.

So mommy and daddy kept telling me they are too tired, and too busy to post pictures of me...blah blah blah. They really need to check their priorities. So I decided to get on and post some pictures myself. Luckily my big sister did it when she was little so she was able to help me out. I hope you enjoy these pictures of the best day in the history of the world (my birthday for those of you that may be confused).


This is my hot mommy right before I came into this world. She was tired and ready for me to come out, but I was so worth it.

This is me getting weighed for the very first time. I apologize for my nakedness but I didn't have much choice in the matter. I really am a very modest young man. As you can see I was a whopping 9 pounds 1.5 ounces. Livy may have been a little taller, but she's got nothing on my weight. I guess I am just like daddy, stocky. (No Uncle John, not fat.)

Here is my first picture with mommy and daddy. I was a little cold after being naked for so long so they had to bundle me up. My mommy is quite cute, I'm not sure how daddy got so lucky on that one, but I am glad he did because I am adorable.

This was after my first bath. I hear that big sister likes to take baths a lot, and after my first one I can see why. They gave me a full body massage, and warm water cascaded through my hair. (As you can see my big head contains a large brain already filled with quite the vocabulary. ) The experience left me with a smile on my face just like it would have for anyone who enjoys the finer comforts in life.

I am so excited to be with my family now. I know that they have been waiting for a long time. I am also glad daddy was able to be there with us before he left to get his orders for the Air Force. We are all going to miss daddy a lot and I am sure he will miss us too. Mommy and Livy are lucky that they have such a great man to take care of them while Daddy is away. At least we get the weeked to spend together, and I get to watch my first BYU game with daddy before he leaves on Monday.

I will post some more pictures when mommy and daddy get around to taking some. Thank you all for the well wishes for my mommy. She is doing great, and we are all excited to go home tomorrow.

single for a week

So my husband and daugther left to utah without me this morning. I am a free woman for a week and half. It reminds me when I had no worries about taking care of nobody and I must say I am pretty excited about it. I remember I would go to the movies by myself cause I love it, I would go out to lunches with my single friends and just watch tons of movies. I must say that sounds superb to me. I have all these little projects in the house I need to finish up to so hopefully I will get it done. I will miss them a ton especially livy (no offense sweetie) this will be the longest time ever away from her. I am happy Dave gets to finally do this hike he has talked about every summer before he leaves he deserves it. It will also be good for my daughter to spend time with her grandmas and grandpas. So I am going to start watching movies now yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!

livy fell

So Olivia was playing at the playground the other day and head planted first on the cement and ended up getting a bad scar on her nose and under her nose. The poor thing it was so sad. She always runs to fast and then trips over herself. She is a trooper though and it didn't bother her until she wanted to rip the scab off and felt the pain from that. She drives me nutts how she always wants to rip her scabs off. She is so happy all the time and it makes me happy that she is. She definitely throws her fits and has so much energy but thats what you get with a kid. Here is some pictures of her face and her friends Caleb and Nathan who she just loves.

Feeling Down!

Last night I put Olivia in the bathtub and she loves it so obviously didn't want to get out. So when I pulled her out by one arm not under the armpit I here two pops and then my daughter started screaming. I yelled for dave and because I was sure I popped her arm out of socket I was scared but her arm wasn't just laying there and she was holding her wrist where I pulled her out. I was freaking out and started driving to the ER. I didn't want to go to the ER since we have been there a million times this month and it may look like I am abusive. So livy was totally happy she just wouldn't let us touch her arm. When we got there we sat in the parking lot trying to decide if we should go and with some phone calls we made to other people we decided to opt out and just see how she does through the night and just get her ice cream which she was totally excited about.

So then there is me. I felt so bad I couldn't believe I did that and should know better but it has been hard for me now to bend down and pick her up and was being lazy. I got home and just bawled because dave and I weren't agreeing upon stuff, I hurt my daughter, my hormones are so out of whack, and I blamed it all on me. I got in the tub and sobbed and sobbed. Dave came in feeling really bad and told me things like this happen don't blame yourself. He also apologized that we were getting mad at each other about the situation and tried to make me feel better. I must say he got me to stop crying but this morning even when I wake up livy and she is using that arm now like nothing happened I still feel horrible and just want to cry that I almost accidentally hurt her. I don't like being a mom right now to many emotions and I love her so much I want nothing bad to harm her. God reassured me and let me know everything will be okay last night but it doesn't make me feel like a bad mom today.
